  • Sep 18, 2026Popup Maker – Boost Sales, Conversions, Optins, Subscribers with the Ultimate WP Popup Builder: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-15797 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Popup Maker – Boost Sales, Conversions, Optins, Subscribers with the Ultimate WP Popup Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via post_title in all versions up to, and including, 1.24.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the attacker to create a post with an HTML entity-encoded payload in the title, which bypasses sanitize_text_field on save and is later decoded and executed by the browser when rendered by the Select2 component.

    The Complianz GDPR/CCPA Cookie Consent Banner plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content via Elementor Cookie Blocker Regex in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

    The CSS & JavaScript Toolbox plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 12.0.6 via the Assignment Engine fields. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on assignment data fields including Expressions, URLs, and Advanced assignment data. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the CJT block edit screen in the admin dashboard.

  • Sep 18, 2026Strong Testimonials: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-92622 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Strong Testimonials plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'lightbox_class' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires that the targeted testimonial view has at least one published testimonial with a featured image and the lightbox wrapper enabled, as the vulnerable code path is only reached when a thumbnail is rendered.

  • Sep 18, 2026ShopLentor – All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement: Reflected Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-92554 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.1

    The ShopLentor – All-in-One WooCommerce Growth & Store Enhancement Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via Query-String Parameter Name in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The vulnerability is triggered via the WL: Product Horizontal Filter widget, which reflects attacker-supplied query-string parameter names from the current URL into option element value attributes without escaping, allowing payload breakout from the value="..." attribute context.

  • Sep 18, 2026Qi Addons For Elementor: Reflected Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-92249 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.1

    The Qi Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 's' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.11 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires the Table of Contents widget to be placed on a template that renders on the WordPress search-results page (e.g., a sitewide header or footer template) with the 'Limit ToC to Main Page Content' option left at its default value of No, so the widget scans the search-results heading that reflects the unsanitized `s` parameter.

    The Newsletter – Send awesome emails from WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'nn' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.3.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Successful exploitation requires the victim to be a logged-in administrator, as the antibot check auto-passes for authenticated users, routing the unsanitized payload through the administrator-visible output branch of dienow().

    The VK All in One Expansion Unit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'vkExUnit_cta_img_position' Post Meta in all versions up to, and including, 9.118.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The sanitize_text_field callback applied on save does not strip double-quote characters or on* event-handler attributes, and the output filter Vk_Call_To_Action::safe_kses_post() only rewrites disallowed iframe elements while returning all other content verbatim, leaving the injected payload intact in the rendered HTML.

  • Sep 18, 2026Kubio AI Page Builder: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-14472 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Kubio AI Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via kubio/copyright Block Content in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This bypasses both the WordPress core kses-on-save filter and the plugin's own wp_kses_post() call, because entity-encoded script tags are treated as inert text by kses but are decoded into live HTML by the subsequent html_entity_decode() call in CopyrightBlock::render_template().

  • Sep 18, 2026Booking Calendar: Reflected Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-92561 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.1

    The Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'options' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 11.8.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The nonce check is bypassed by default because the 'booking_is_nonce_at_front_end' option ships disabled, allowing unauthenticated requests to reach the vulnerable sink without any verification.

    The EmbedPress – PDF Embedder, 3D PDF FlipBook, Google Reviews, YouTube Videos, Upload & Embed PDF documents plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'unique' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.6.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This is a regression: the esc_url() wrapper that remediated the equivalent CVE-2023-5749 in version 3.9.2 was removed in version 4.3.0 during a refactor that introduced the 'unique' parameter.

  • Sep 18, 2026GPTranslate – Multilingual AI Translation Agent for WordPress: Translate Your Site with AI: Sensitive Information ExposureCVE-2026-89278 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The GPTranslate – Multilingual AI Translation Agent for WordPress: Translate Your Site with AI plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.34.6 via the enqueue_frontend_scripts. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract the plaintext third-party AI provider API key (OpenAI, DeepL, xAI/Grok, Gemini, Claude, or Google Cloud Translation) — a credential granting billed account access — by fetching any public page and applying the inverse transformation bundled in the plugin's own public JavaScript asset. This exposure affects the default configuration (gpt-3.5-turbo in client mode) and all supported non-DeepSeek providers; only deepseek-* models and gpt-* models configured in server-proxy mode correctly suppress key emission.

  • Sep 18, 2026Hide My WP Ghost: Does not properly validate a loopback security-check request before disabling its login and URL hiding protectionCVE-2026-86800 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanMedium 5.3

    The Hide My WP Ghost WordPress plugin before 7.0.11 does not properly validate a loopback security-check request before disabling its login and URL hiding protection, dropping that protection precisely when the request's verification value is missing or incorrect, which any visitor can arrange, allowing unauthenticated attackers to re-expose the concealed WordPress login page location.

    The Hide My WP Ghost WordPress plugin before 7.0.11 does not verify that a request is a genuine WooCommerce request before disabling its firewall, threat-detection and login/URL-hiding protections, treating the mere presence of an attacker-suppliable request parameter as sufficient, which allows unauthenticated attackers to disable those protections and re-expose the concealed login and admin URLs on any request.

  • Sep 18, 2026Custom Twitter Feeds – A Tweets Widget or X Feed Widget: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-84909 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.4

    The Custom Twitter Feeds – A Tweets Widget or X Feed Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'buttoncolor' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This vulnerability is exploitable on common installs where the admin has configured access tokens with zero or multiple legacy feeds, as this causes the ctf_statuses support_legacy_shortcode option to be set to boolean true by default, activating the unfiltered legacy shortcode attribute code path.

  • Sep 18, 2026Magazine Blocks – Blog Designer, Magazine & Newspaper Website Builder, Page Builder with Posts Blocks, Post Grid: Authorization bypassCVE-2026-75017 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 4.3

    The Magazine Blocks – Blog Designer, Magazine & Newspaper Website Builder, Page Builder with Posts Blocks, Post Grid plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.6. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to demote administrator-owned published builder templates (header, footer, front page, single, archive, 404, and search) to draft status and replace them with attacker-authored block content rendered site-wide, enabling defacement, phishing, and SEO spam. This is possible because the mzb-builder-template post type is registered with capability_type='post' and exposed via the REST API, and the _mzb_template meta key is accessible to any user with edit_posts capability, meaning Contributor-level users and above can trigger the vulnerable save_post() hook.

    The Magazine Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the News Ticker block's clientId attribute in versions up to, and including, 1.8.6. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the NewsTicker::render() method, which concatenates the clientId block attribute into an HTML class attribute without applying esc_attr(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

    The Bold Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'shortcode_content' parameter of the bt_bb_shortcode shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 5.9.6.
